Executive summary

  • Operational capacity increased to 643.1 MW, with all US assets (Texas and California) brought online, while the Enderby project in GB faced delays limiting full revenue access.

  • NAV per share declined 12% to 90.1p as of 30 September 2025, mainly due to downward revisions in revenue curves for GB and US markets.

  • A comprehensive strategy review led to asset monetisation plans, cost reductions, and a revised capital allocation strategy focused on asset sales, augmentations, and revenue optimisation.

  • Two special dividends of 1.5p per share were announced, funded by US Investment Tax Credit (ITC) proceeds, with the first paid in October and the second pending release of funds.

  • Board succession advanced, with new directors and a new Chair appointed, following shareholder engagement and an activist challenge.

  • Middleton project in GB progressing through the LDES scheme, targeting 800 MWh capacity and 20 years of revenue certainty.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
